Compact period home with rear parking and easy city access.
Double-fronted Victorian mid-terrace, all accommodation on one level
A double-fronted Victorian mid-terrace arranged all on one level, this three-bedroom cottage on Westwood Street offers practical living for first-time buyers or young families. The layout includes a generous lounge, a long kitchen/diner, three ground-floor bedrooms and a single bathroom — all compact but well-proportioned within 731 sq ft. Double glazing and gas central heating are fitted, and the property benefits from freehold tenure and very low council tax (Band A).
Externally the house has a small low-maintenance front area and a rear courtyard with a roller-shutter that provides convenient off-street parking — a rare find on a pedestrianised street. The location is close to local shops, Sunderland Royal Hospital, schools and public transport, with easy access into the city centre.
The cottage has clear potential for updating and redecoration to suit modern tastes; the long kitchen/diner and room sizes give scope for reconfiguration or cosmetic improvement. Buyers should note the property is relatively small overall, with modest plot size, and the terrace dates from c.1900–1929 so older-house issues are possible. Cavity walls are assumed to be uninsulated, and there is only one bathroom serving three bedrooms.
This is a practical, entry-level period home with parking and central location. It will suit purchasers seeking a manageable, ground-floor living layout with short-term scope for improvement rather than a fully refurbished turnkey house.
